Earrings

So my pretty little girl got her very own "pretties" this week. My rule was when she was old enough to make her own decision, she could get her ears pierced. Well, I think she had been telling me for awhile she was old enough to make her own decision. She kept playing with everyone's earrings!
As you are all wondering, I'm sure. Nope, no cries! She flinched when they stuck her ears, but then she saw them in the mirror. 3 mile wide smile. Absolutely priceless!!
Below you'll see my pretty proud babe!!

The tattoo

After a few months of trying to decide what was JUST RIGHT for me and how to honor the beautiful country of Ethiopia, it had finally come to me. So this past weekend, I got "inked" on the inside of my right ankle to show that honor...

Just waiting

Yep, just been waiting on our home study to be finished. Once that is finished we'll send that off to the appropriate places it needs to go. We'll then be SO close to done. I know, I keep saying we are SO close....really we are. Everything just takes time, patience and waiting...

So I got this new tool, if you want to call it, for Addison and her hair. Saw it advertised on tv and the internet and thought I'd check it out. Called the InStyler. Oh my gosh!! The best tool ever!!! LOVE seeing me girl with straight hair!! Well, till the humidity gets ahold of her! :-) Can't believe how long her hair really is though! Doesn't look as long when it's big and poofy :-)






Oh how she LOVES her roasted marshmallows!!!



Caleb LOVES his new little cousin Owen. Does anything to get him to smile!
The 4 boys at Cole's b-day party. Sno-cones were a hit that day!
Caleb loved attempting to push his sister in the stroller while camping.
My 2 boys on the first day of preschool playgroup. It's so hard to think Trevor will be starting kindergarten and Caleb preschool this fall!
